Round Rock ISD Appears to Be Violating State Law: No Election Notice Posted for November Trustee Races Jill Farris, thank you for your continued vigilance and service to the Round Rock community. On Friday, July 10th, you visited the Round Rock ISD Administration building — where public notices are legally required to be posted — and found no notice whatsoever regarding the upcoming November 3, 2026 Trustee Election.This is concerning because Texas law is very clear: The first deadline for the November 3, 2026 election was Thursday, June 18, 2026. This was the deadline for the district to post the official Notice of Deadline to File an Application for Place on the Ballot under Texas Election Code § 141.040. The Secretary of State’s Elections Division requires this notice (available in both English and Spanish) to be posted in a building where the filing authority maintains an office. It must be posted no later than the 30th day before the first day candidates may file.Yet here we are — weeks past the June 18 deadline — and on July 10 there was still no public notice at the administration building. Candidate filing period opens this Saturday. Round Rock ISD families and potential candidates deserve basic transparency and compliance with state election law. Failing to post this required notice creates unnecessary barriers for good people who want to run for the school board and serve our children. Jill, your observation highlights exactly why engaged citizens and strong conservative candidates are so important. We need leaders who will follow the rules and prioritize accountability.Questions for RRISD: 1) Why was the required notice not posted by June 18? 2) When will the official notice be posted and properly publicized? 3) How will the district ensure all potential candidates have fair and equal access to filing information? Round Rock parents and taxpayers are watching. Let’s demand full compliance with Texas election law and encourage quality conservative candidates to run despite these obstacles. @M4LWilCoTX @cslape @happywarri0r @Lorionafarm @WilcoGOP @RoundRockISD @teainfo @LufkinLawyer
TX Tech files an LCA to hire an H-1B Associate Director of Marketing (Marketing Cloud) 8% unemployed for young Computer Engineers 53% underemployment for recent communications grads There was no American to do this job @TexasTech ?
Under @EDSecMcMahon, predators in America’s schools are finally being held accountable. For decades, school administrators and teachers’ unions have allowed the sexual abuse of our students. It ends now.
🚨 HOLY SMOKES. ICE has just announced a jaw-dropping fraud bust, saying 10,000 FOREIGN students are involved in the federal government's Optional Practical Training There are EMPTY BUILDINGS where HUNDREDS of students should be "working" as part of their ability to be in America — run by foreign-linked groups that send money out of the country! Locked doors, hundreds of students sharing the SAME ADDRESS, and "employers" sharing the same unleased addresses There is a widespread "phantom employee" fraud going on. This is insane. Many of the so-called "employers" have major red flags, such as facing lawsuits, no employment records, offshore payroll claims, and suspicious INTERNATIONAL MONEY flows "HSI agents have visited problematic OPT employer work sites in Virginia, Texas, Georgia, Illinois, New York, New Jersey, North Carolina, and Florida." "Foreign students themselves are entering false addresses and employer names into the student and exchange visitor information system." "But we are uncovering evidence of organized fraud that spans national and international borders. This is not accidental. It is deliberate, coordinated, and criminal." "To give you an example, one employer we visited claimed to employ only three foreign students through OPT, while our records show over 500 foreign students claiming to work there." "The company's representatives were unable to answer basic questions about the business and deferred HR managers in India." "OPT employers are required to directly train foreign students, but we've seen multiple examples of alleged employers claiming that all management is overseas in India." "We've also discovered multiple state networks which are large networks of alleged employers claiming to train thousands of foreign students in OPT, then farming them out to unreported third party employers, making oversight nearly impossible and raising serious national security issues."
🪶 UPDATE: FORMER PFISD EMPLOYEE ACCUSED OF FRACTURING AN AUTISTIC FIVE-YEAR-OLD’S FINGERS IS SET FOR A PLEA HEARING JULY 23 🪶 By: Buddy Falcon Media LLC McKinzie Merrell, the former Pflugerville Elementary School employee accused of intentionally fracturing two fingers on a five-year-old autistic student’s right hand in September 2024, is scheduled for a plea hearing on July 23, 2026, in Travis County’s 460th District Court. A grand jury indicted Merrell on a charge of first-degree felony injury to a child causing serious bodily injury. She remains presumed innocent unless and until she is convicted, whether through a plea or at trial. PfISD publicly confirmed that Merrell was not a certified teacher and was toward certification. Texas school districts regularly employ noncertified instructional staff through different positions, permits, programs and local policies. That fact alone is not the issue. The issue is public transparency: How will parents identify and follow an uncertified instructional employee who changes districts, job titles or legal names? Merrell is not necessarily invisible to TEA, law enforcement or school-district background-check systems. Districts have access to fingerprint-based criminal-history checks, employment records and internal state systems that parents cannot access. Texas also has a public Do Not Hire Registry, which may include certified and noncertified school employees who are under investigation or have been found ineligible for employment. But it is not a complete statewide employment-history database. It does not list every former school employee, district assignment, arrest, allegation, termination or investigation. Because Merrell never obtained a Texas teaching certificate, parents searching TEA’s public Certificate Lookup will not find a certificate record under her name. That means she may be traceable internally, but there is no single public Texas system that allows parents to see a complete, name-linked record showing where an uncertified instructional employee has worked; whether the employee was certified, permitted or completely non-certified and whether the employee was previously investigated or reported by another school district. Parents are left searching separate staff directories, court records, certification databases and the Do Not Hire Registry—often without knowing every name or job title an employee has used. Merrell’s case is a perfect example of that transparency gap. A school staff directory may identify someone as a teacher, facilitator, educational associate or instructional employee, but it usually does not tell families whether that person holds a Texas teaching certificate or what authorization allows that employee to provide classroom instruction. A plea hearing on July 23 may resolve the criminal charge against McKinzie Merrell. It will not resolve the larger question: How does Texas ensure that parents can publicly identify and accurately follow an uncertified instructional employee after that person leaves one district, changes positions or changes names? Parents should not have to investigate multiple databases or file public-information requests to learn whether the adult placed in their child’s classroom is certified. Texas school districts should link every instructional employee’s staff-directory entry directly to the applicable TEA certificate, permit or clearly disclosed noncertified status. — Buddy Falcon Media, LLC Keeping Watch.

🚨 HEARTBREAKING HORROR 🚨 DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin just exposed the pure evil: Innocent children trafficked across the open border were RAPED 600 TO 700 TIMES — locked in rooms, forced to service monsters day after day. THEY ARE BABIES. THEY DON’T DESERVE THIS. NO CHILD DOES. “We found 146,000 kids so far… but nearly 300,000 are STILL MISSING.” I don’t care if you’re liberal, conservative, or anywhere in between — if you can’t stand up and scream SAVE OUR CHILDREN, who the hell are you?! This is not politics. This is a national emergency. These kids are suffering in the shadows while too many look away. ENOUGH. Share this. Demand action. Demand every missing child be found. Demand justice for the innocent. #SaveTheChildren #ProtectOurKids #EndTheHorror Repost if you have a soul. These babies need us NOW. 💔🙏
Schools that receive federal funding have a duty to protect students, report sexual misconduct honestly, and follow the law. We are holding school districts accountable because every child deserves to learn in a safe environment free from sexual abuse and harassment.
